Any word on Server Transfers?

Artifact Boxes will remain available on the L2 Store until September 26

This is a completely useless event - other than what you can get for few hundred K in store.  Don't waste your time for resources on this.  Just another big fail event.

Unfortunately, server transfers will be unavailable for a little while longer.

What's the hold up with the server transfer? ETA on it? at least an approximate would be fine

In another topic Hime stated they may announce something in the up coming weeks!

[OmenOfSteel 140]

Oh nice, HIME is back, we got a slight chance to get some answer to some questions, wb HIME.

So, here's the biggest problem (apart from L2 Store and Bots, which aren't needed to discuss atm) on your servers right now, and most easy to fix:

Any info on how long the monitoring period is? Also, if it explodes in the face again, will we have another emergency maintenance just to disable it?

[zethera 0]

Server went down an hour early?

[SweetSacrifice 12]

@Hime Can you also check the huge lag we have after we got the update? Its unplayable sometimes and randoms dcs everywhere, and soulshots not working sometimes also.

You are thinking of a magic bullet of sorts. XC3 will not be able to do what you expect from it based on your post.

I am more interested if I should prepare for kicks at random times during the week due to emergency maintenance(s).

About RL weapons, many people really need this. They cannot join fast (even usual) parties without good weapons.

So, as far I see, RL weapons will be exist in game until current event end for sure and, may be, whole next event ( if this panned without boosters). Current event is prety good to make some adena for gear and buy guns cheap. In future RL must be removed. It is much better if they add the possibility of upgrading the blessed items and scrolls of blessing in the following events. Also RL weapon  I hope, and that's a right way, NCWest will notify us few weeks before weapon is gone.

Wooot??? Those weapons shouldnt stay so long in game, it said there...weapon will be gone when RL event is gone. Those weapons impact market in negative way and they are not helpful for nwbies, naked chars, non $$ spenders, im not gone explain why...you know better.
They should delete those weapons asap without any notification.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH

 

I'm sorry you're mad because you spent $$ on a weapon that is slightly devalued because of the red libre event. Don't worry the weapons will be removed and you can go back to picking on newbies wielding +4 apoc weapons..

The reason is not because of a temporary event weapon. The real reason is the lack of new players and your refusal to list at a reasonable price. I've sold several weapons in the last few weeks without issue. Granted they weren't +12 weapons...

The new user experience is terrible in this game so there isn't much in the way of new people to buy gear. Besides newbies aren't going to be the type to buy a 4b weapon. Hell newbies will be lucky to have half that total to spend on gear by the time they hit 99. Combine that with the continuing loss of the veteran players and you end up with low demand. The veteran players that remain have generally moved well beyond a basic +12 r grade weapons.

[LordDragnil 25]

I know about this problem. That's why I said, they should inform people before RL gone. Don't worry about selling. Everything gonna be sold. But, IMO, better way is upgrade of gear blessed to normal highter grade. Ofc, enchanted blessed weapon is better than common one (even grade highter). So why they must introduce more scrolls of blessing. Also this step will enlarge list of wanted items for event.

@Hime

Managed to log on one character ONCE after the maint was over, it lagged out and then I couldn't log on any character anymore.The server select screen is as far as it will go for now...

[cmquake 12]

Naia appears to be down.. also logged in 2 characters but none could move. Couldn't even quit the game from the menu so I had to kill both processes.
